As shown in FIG. 3, each inclination-angle regulating device 4 as above there is dish type ratchet 10 and guiding piece 20, be arranged on locking component (not shown) between ratchet 10 and guiding piece 20, by locking component be placed in latched position or unlocked position hinge cam 30, continue pushing hinge cam 30 and make its locking spring 40 rotating and keep ratchet 10 and the periphery side ring 50 of guiding piece 20 in assembled state on locking direction.Ratchet 10 has disc portion 11 and cylindrical section 12, and this cylindrical section 12 forms with the thickness direction at disc portion 11 (axial direction) upper outstanding with cylindrical shape in the outer circumference of disc portion 11.Round tube hole 13 middle body through ratchet 10 on thickness direction forms.Guiding piece 20 with have the diameter larger than ratchet 10 dish shape form, and guiding piece 20 has disc portion 21 and cylindrical section 22, the thickness direction (axial direction) that this cylindrical section 22 forms this disc portion 21 to be installed to ratchet 10 along guiding piece 20 in the outer circumference of disc portion 21 is outstanding with cylindrical shape.The middle body that round tube hole 23 also passes guiding piece 20 on thickness direction forms.
In the time that the cylindrical section 12,22 of ratchet 10 and guiding piece 20 is bonded with each other in the axial direction, together with ratchet 10 is assembled into guiding piece 20, cylindrical section 12,22 is loosely assemblied in and goes up each other to mutually supporting they can relative to each other be rotated in the radial direction.Periphery side ring 50 is arranged in the neighboring part that is so assembled into ratchet together 10 and guiding piece 20, ratchet 10 and guiding piece 20 is remained on and prevent that they are in the axial direction from the state departing from each other.Ratchet 10 is installed to a part that backrest frame 2a makes the outer planar surface of ratchet 10 and is integrally coupled to a part for the outer planar surface of backrest frame 2a, and guiding piece 20 is installed to a part that cushion frame 3a makes the outer planar surface of guiding piece 20 and is integrally coupled to a part for the inner flat surface of cushion frame 3a.Utilize this layout, each inclination-angle regulating device 4 connects each sidepiece of backrest frame 2a with the corresponding sidepiece of cushion frame 3a, so that therefore support frame 2a, 3a can rotate around same axis them.
Above-mentioned locking component (not shown) is arranged between ratchet 10 and guiding piece 20 to stop or the rotation relative to guiding piece 20 of permission ratchet 10.More specifically, locking component is supported along circumferential direction and is made this locking component only can be with respect to guiding piece 20 along radially outward and move inward.When the hinge cam 30 in the middle body that is supported on guiding piece 20 in rotatable mode is in the time that a direction or another side rotate up, agitation member operated with by along radially outward promote, with press ratchet 10 cylindrical section 12 inner peripheral surface (flank of tooth) and engage, or operated with by along radially inwardly retracting, departed from the cylindrical section 12 from ratchet 10.
In the time that locking component engages with the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical section 12 of ratchet 10 due to the rotation of hinge cam 30, inclination-angle regulating device 4 is placed in and stops in the latched position that ratchet 10 and guiding piece 20 relative to each other rotate., locking component is supported along circumferential direction and is made this locking component only can be with respect to guiding piece 20 along radially outward and move inward; Therefore,, when locking component and ratchet 10 are bonded with each other or engage when they can be rotated integratedly, ratchet 10 and guiding piece 20 enter via locking component and stop in the lock-out state that they relative to each other rotate.
Partial insertion above-mentioned hinge cam 30 in the through hole 23 of guiding piece 20 is subject to supporting it can be rotated with respect to guiding piece 20.Under the effect of biasing force that is arranged on the locking spring 40 between hinge cam 30 and guiding piece 20, hinge cam 30 is kept constantly bias voltage on a hand of rotation.In the time that hinge cam 30 is rotated under the effect of biasing force of locking spring 40, locking component is by along radially outward promoting, to be placed in for inclination-angle regulating device 4 is remained in the state of latched position.
Aforesaid operations axle 4a is inserted through the middle body of hinge cam 30.In the time of pull-up trigger bar 5, operating axis 4a rotates up in the side of the biasing force that overcomes locking spring 40, makes hinge cam 30 that locking component (not shown) is departed from from ratchet 10, and discharges inclination-angle regulating device 4 from lock-out state.In this respect, each operating axis 4a is inserted through the middle body of corresponding inclination-angle regulating device 4 along axial direction from being positioned at each sidepiece of backrest frame 2a of seat inner side by the outside from seat.More specifically, through hole 13, the through hole 31 (through hole 23 of guiding piece 20) of hinge cam 30 and the through hole 3c forming in cushion frame 3a that operating axis 4a is inserted through the through hole 2c that forms in backrest frame 2a, in the middle body of the ratchet 10 of inclination-angle regulating device 4, forms, with outstanding to seat outside.
Each operating axis 4a has the cylindricality head 4a1 that the inner end that is arranged in seat inner side at it forms.Head 4a1 has the diameter larger than the remainder of operating axis 4a.Each end of bar 4b is assemblied in the head 4a1 of corresponding operating axis 4a and is incorporated into integratedly this.Therefore, the operating axis 4a on seat both sides interconnects via bar 4b, so as mutually integratedly or as a unit rotate.Prevent that each operating axis 4a with large diameter head 4a1 from being pulled out to seat outside by the inclination-angle regulating device 4 from corresponding.The framework of trigger bar 5 is attached to the part that is arranged in an operating axis in vehicle outside (left-hand side of Fig. 3) in operating axis 4a by welded, this part from cushion frame 3a to seat outside outstanding.
In the time of pull-up trigger bar 5, operating axis 4a is rotation simultaneously in the direction of biasing force of locking spring 40 that overcomes inclination-angle regulating device 4, and inclination-angle regulating device 4 is discharged from latched position simultaneously.In the time stopping pull-up trigger bar 5, operating axis 4a rotates together with hinge cam 30 under the effect of the biasing force of the locking spring 40 of inclination-angle regulating device 4 on locking direction, and inclination-angle regulating device 4 is turned back in latched position simultaneously.
Each operating axis 4a connects with corresponding hinge cam 30, makes the further freely rotation alone in the same direction of specified rate to be represented by play (or gap) angle Td of state that operating axis 4a can rotate to inclination-angle regulating device 4 blocked positions from hinge cam 30.As shown in FIG. 2, so set play angle Td, even if make from initial position with specified rate pull-up trigger bar 5, still stop operating axis 4a rotation, thereby strengthen operation sense.More specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, operating axis 4a has the cross section of basic rectangular shape, and the similar butterfly of the through hole 31 of hinge cam 30 ground is shaped to allow operating axis 41 freely rotation in given angular range, and play angle Td is set to that operating axis 4a can freely rotate until it abuts against the angular range on the corresponding sidewall in the sidewall 31a of through hole 31 of hinge cam 30.
In the situation that setting play angle Td as described above, when (trigger bar 5 is operated in it, pull-up) in initial position before time, pushing inclination-angle regulating device 4 is used as and is ad hoc applied to hinge cam 30 to rotated to latched position and hold it in the power in this position towards the biasing force of the locking spring 40 of latched position rotation, in the state (chatter state) that operating axis 4a and trigger bar 5 can freely rotate with respect to the hinge cam 30 that remains on latched position place in them in the setting range of play angle Td simultaneously.In view of this situation, be installed between operating axis 4a and cushion frame 3a for the torsion spring 7 that forces operating axis 4a and trigger bar 5 to remain on their initial position, to prevent that operating axis 4a and trigger bar 5 are at initial position chatter.
Torsion spring 7, from being installed in the axial direction on each operating axis 4a when the outside of the seat in the time that Width is observed, is wound around torsion spring 7 on operating axis 4a.More specifically, in the time observing on the Width at seat, originally operating axis 4a is inserted through the inner end 7a of torsion spring 7.The inner end 7a of the most close seat location is formed with the curved shape mating with the bight of operating axis 4a.The bight of operating axis 4a has the cross-sectional plane of angle (rectangle).In the situation that operating axis 4a is so inserted through torsion spring 7, inner end 7a engages with operating axis 4a, makes torsion spring 7 and the operating axis 4a can be as a unit or rotation (seeing Fig. 2) integratedly.After inner end 7a engages with operating axis 4a, to seat outer felt around the outer end 7b of torsion spring 7 engage with the lead edge portion of each spring leaf 3b1 and fixed thereon, the lead edge portion of this each spring leaf 3b1 is bent downwardly from the far-end of L shaped plate 3b of each outside portion of being attached to as mentioned above cushion frame 3a.Spring leaf 3b1 is as " frame part " of the present invention.
In the situation that torsion spring 7 is so arranged on corresponding operating axis 4a, spring bias is applied to right and left operating axis 4a equably, and the trigger bar 5 that receives even spring bias remains on initial position and chatter does not occur.Because the bias voltage direction of each torsion spring 7 is with as above the bias voltage direction at the locking spring 40 of each inclination-angle regulating device 4 described in Fig. 3 is identical, so torsion spring 7 is also as biasing member, this biasing member upwards applies biasing force to hinge cam 30 is rotated towards latched position to hinge cam 30 via corresponding operating axis 4a the party.
Meanwhile, operating axis 4a is assembled into together via bar 4b in the axial direction; Therefore, for guaranteeing that the clearance C 1 that is easy in the axial direction assembling or packaging efficiency is arranged between the head 4a1 of each operating axis 4a and the side end face of the ratchet 10 of inclination-angle regulating device 4 in each side.Therefore, the integrative-structure of operating axis 4a and bar 4b becomes in the axial direction and rocks (seeing Fig. 4) in the scope of clearance C 1.Axially displaced due to the assembly of operating axis 4a and bar 4b, each torsion spring 7 being arranged on the outer end of corresponding operating axis 4a can skid off operating axis 4a and come off.For example, if operating axis 4a as in Fig. 4, see to shifting left or mobile, as see in Fig. 4, right side torsion spring 7 can skid off operating axis 4a and come off.If displacement occurs in the opposite direction, left side torsion spring 7 can skid off operating axis 4a and come off.
But, in this embodiment, each torsion spring 7 is axially installed to the end of the corresponding operating axis 4a outstanding to seat outside from seat outside and is wound around thereon, the inner end 7a of more close seat is engaged with operating axis 4a, and engage with the corresponding spring leaf 3b1 that is attached to cushion frame 3a away from the outer end 7b of seat.Utilize this layout, even if the operating axis 4a of torsion spring 7 is installed towards seat inner side (in the axial direction) displacement, owing to there is axial overlap length Ra between the inner end 7a at operating axis 4a and outer end, torsion spring 7 still can not or unlikely depart from from operating axis 4a.And each torsion spring 7 is so shaped that inner end 7a and outer end 7b are positioned at along axial relative position; Therefore, even if the operating axis 4a of torsion spring 7 is installed towards seat inner side (in the axial direction) displacement, torsion spring 7 is still out of shape,, extend in the axial direction (seeing Fig. 4), and prevented that torsion spring 7 is compressed and separated from the end of operating axis 4a.Therefore,, even if the assembly of operating axis 4a and bar 4b rocks because the endplay C1 arranging for each operating axis 4a becomes, torsion spring 7 still can not or unlikely depart from from operating axis 4a.
Utilize this real this to execute routine layout, each torsion spring 7 is arranged on corresponding operating axis 4a in the axial direction from seat outside, makes the inner end 7a of the more close seat of torsion spring 7 can utilize its shape of mating with the bight of operating axis 4a and engage with operating axis 4a.Therefore, torsion spring 7 can easily engage with operating axis 4a.And by extending in the axial direction the bight of operating axis 4a, torsion spring 7 can be easily set as yes long with the axial overlap length Ra that operating axis 4a corresponding end that engage, from inner end 7a to operating axis 4a measures.The detailed layout of each inclination-angle regulating device 4 and as basic identical in the detailed layout of disclosed inclination-angle regulating device in Japanese Patent Application No.2011-116303 (JP2011-116303A), and therefore will not describe particularly.
